so I figured I might as well start a build thread because parts are gonna start coming in...small mods or large mods who knows

here she is how I bought her with only an exhaust setup on it
02/auto/28k miles
I bought the auto because I drive a 10 speed semi all day and prefer not to shift anymore( I know but you try driving 200k miles a year and shifting 6 gears by the time you hit 15 mph....not to mention the auto is faster in the 1/4)











now it begins

I picked up a z06 powerduct which people have seen dyno result of 2-6 depending on the intake setup.
I KNOW I DONT DRIVE A Z06... but the price was too good to not pick it up and cover it with a logo/sticker later on

also picked up a new glass top to replace the one that I got with the car all broke.
The guy that sold me the new top claims the old one is damage from flying off lol.

today I also ordered an exhaust enhancer plate

I ordered an led reverse light set and a led hood light set to replace the old oem bulbs

and of course I have a blackwing intake on the way.

and also bought a flip up license plate holder to hide my plate at car shows
in MO you have to have a front plate

so here is the first of many mods to arrive


heres the old top that was damage(that stuff that looks like jizz is actualy scratches in the lexan) and I also installed led lights in the footwells for a more modern look
the new top looks mint for 250 bucks and its so nice to have a clear top(now I have 3 tops)
I am thinking about getting the batman logo in vinyl to cover the damage top to put in the trunk for car shows

Found this sticker and it was too good to pass up(ricer move but hell I got a kick out of it)


I was going to paint my calipers red, but I am gonna order cross drilled rotors and new pads first... 2 birds one stone

nice pick up. i agree about the shifting. sometimes while arriving at the post gate, my foot is constantly on the clutch in stop-go traffic. interested to see where this goes.

so after 3 hours of waxing and wiping the interior I got my car perfect inside and out

and got carried away today and ordered

flush mount tail covers and seals, led tag lights, dual cup holder, and corvette 3d lettering front and back, also a car cover

might not sound like a big deal but the cup holder alone is 50 bucks

after the tax it was something like 1400

but I will now have sirius, ipod connection, backup cam, odbII readouts, and all that good stuff with this unit

ya gonna get a front end bra when I find one, I just hope the paint looks perfect

I am taking the manual flip up plate back and buying a remote powered plate

still waiting to get home and do the rotors, paint the calipers, and install new pads

so far the only thing that arrived is my stupid led tag lights

much more to come, when I install the radio I am prolly gonna get the car insulated and run wires for the amp/sub

as most of you know the car needed a full repaint and the dealer never told me it was damaged besides being keyed

so traded in for this bitch
haters need not comment

09 4500 on the clock
